Chapter 647 Gao Lan abdicates

The battle went very fast, and before the Maris could react, the navy camp in Dongji Port had been wiped out.

On the sea, the Han warships and the Mali warships faced each other at a distance, with battle flags flying and the sea wind howling.

On the Han army's flagship, Han Ergou stood behind Su Ping, his face full of worry:

"Commander Commander, the Mariman ship is bigger than ours. If there is a fight, we are afraid we will suffer a loss."

The sailors around also said:

"Not only are they big, but there are also many of them. Look at those ballistae. They are much larger in caliber than ours."

"If the Mali warship rolls over, will we be crushed to death?"

"Damn it, I've never seen such a big ship before."

A group of navy generals were chattering away. Although their tone was relaxed, their hearts were trembling as they looked at the approaching warships.

It's just that the opponent's warships are too big and there are too many warships.

Lin Gang held the side of the boat and said with a tone full of envy:

"It would be great if our Han country could also have such a fighting ship."

The captain next to Han Ergou raised his eyebrows and said in an impatient tone:

"Captain Sha, don't talk nonsense. If we can have such a warship, it will almost consume all the national power. The imperial court will almost fill the treasury into the warship."

Next to him, Vice General Liu sighed:

"Although I say so, without such a big ship, we will be defeated now."

"Commander Commander, withdraw. We are no match for the agile people. We cannot afford to fight them to the death. The most important thing is to preserve our warships."

Vice General Liu looked at Su Ping next to him.

Su Ping shook his head, "Old Liu, you are still too short-sighted. Lin Gang, tell Old Liu why we don't have to be afraid."

All eyes were focused on Lin Gang.

Lin Gang touched the back of his head and said in a dull tone:

"Even if we have powerful crossbows, the quick and agile people would not dare to rush up and eat our powerful crossbows."

Han Ergou said next to him:

"The Mali people also have powerful crossbows. If we dare to use them, they will also dare to use them, but we don't know who will suffer."

Lin Gang scratched his head and pointed at the rotten Dongji Port in the distance.

"We have already used it. The Mali people don't dare to use their own boats to test whether we dare to sail against them. Besides, the prince is still on the shore. The Mali people must know it."

Su Ping didn't listen to Lin Gang's explanation. He just looked diagonally upward, looking at the huge warship that almost covered the sky of his own warship.

When will we be able to have such a big ship to compete with the Maris?

There was a loud sound of birds flapping their wings, and the birds that dropped three powerful crossbows flapped their wings and flew toward the sea, as if they were ready to launch their powerful crossbows at any time.

The Mali fleet did not dare to face the flying birds, so they had to turn the bow and retreat slowly.

The flying birds circled around the sea, forcing the Mariman's warship back, and then retreated boldly.

Su Ping tightened his grip on the side of the ship, with an ugly expression on his face. He was being shown off in front of the Mali people. The excitement of continuously defeating the Yingte people in the past few months had disappeared.

Compared with the Mali people, the Intelligent people are like toddlers. Competing with the Mali people at sea is what they should do.

"If you contend with this, you are a man."

Su Ping pinched the side of the boat and said with a ferocious expression.

On the shore, Marshall watched his fleet retreat and the Han birds retreat, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

He saluted Su Lu and said:

"Your Majesty, since the Yingte people have been destroyed, the foreign ministers must retire."

Su Lu waved his hand and said casually:

"Your army is unruly. If it hadn't been for the deterrence of my flying birds just now, your fleet would have started a war with the Han Kingdom. It's disrespectful to come and go, and we, the Han Kingdom, can't swallow this breath in vain."

Marshall was disapproving. Although the fleet moved just now, it did not fire its ballistae or use the strength of the ship to crush it. The navy had already restrained itself enough.

"Your Majesty, it is clear to me that I am an invincible naval force and have always acted like this. If I have offended your country in any way, I would like to express my apology to Your Majesty."

Lu Zhan next to him asked and said:

"I apologize, but I still need your warship commander to come. You are just an envoy, what qualifications do you have to represent the warship commander?"

Marshall glanced at Lu Zhan, and his arrogance as an envoy of a great power aroused:

"It's good that I can express my apology. If you want my warship commander to come, I'm afraid your country doesn't have the strength."

Su Lu shook his head:

"Okay, go ahead and remember what you said today."

Marshall didn't take it seriously either, turned around and left to mind his own business. So what if I remember what I said today? Could it be that your Han country still dares to declare war on me?

Lu Zhan looked at Marshall's back and said angrily:

"Mari people are too arrogant."

Gao Dabao clenched his fists loudly, his tone full of wildness:

"Hmph, don't fall into my hands, otherwise I will make him look good."

Su Lu turned around and walked towards the car, giving instructions at the same time:

"Go down with the order, Feiniao loads the crossbow, shouts to the Mali people, and tells them to retreat, otherwise they will abandon the crossbow."

"Leave a guard camp to clean up this place and cooperate with the navy to turn Dongji Port into a military port."

"The infantry turned and headed straight for Nanwan Port. Since the Mali people dare to bully our navy with their navy, then my infantry will bully his infantry."

"The whole army marched all the way west, directly to Nanwan Port."

The generals agreed with a loud voice and turned around to put the matter in order.

Han State, Hexi Prefecture.

Gao Lan was sitting in the backyard of the Hexi magistrate's office, looking up at the clouds in the sky, his eyes dull and listless.

Standing next to him were the young prince Gao Chang, the great eunuch, and several important ministers.

Since the Han Dynasty's southern expedition, the Tang Kingdom has suffered repeated defeats. The country forced by Cao Hua has repeatedly moved southward. Now it has reached Hexi, not far from the border of Chu Kingdom.

"Can't retreat any further."

Gao Lan murmured to himself, his tone full of decadence, sadness, and unwillingness.

The chief eunuch persuaded him and said:

"Your Majesty, it's cold in the yard, let's go back to the house and rest."

The young prince Gao Chang next to him also persuaded him:

"Your Majesty, the Han Dynasty is suffering from mustard disease. The Mali people have intervened. The Han Dynasty has already stationed its troops. It is only a matter of time before we return the lost state capital. Your Majesty does not need to worry too much."

"Don't worry?"

Gao Lan glanced at Gao Chang who was speaking, his face gloomy as if he was about to drip water:

"You really dare to speak so loudly, but you can't fight, and you can't flatter me even if you flatter me."

"I really thought that Su Lu was made of mud, and he would pay it back if the Mali people told him to. I really thought that the Mali people could defeat the Han infantry."

"Even if he, Su Lu, is willing to pay back, wouldn't the Mali people have any idea, go to the front door and go to the tiger and the back door to enter the wolf? Gao Chang, you have to remember that there is no good person in this world who is good to you for no reason."

"Wei Huhu, Lu Kang, Tang Yi, and Qian Zhenglun are listening."

Gao Lan asked.

Wei Hu and all the ministers hurriedly knelt down, and the ministers knelt down on the ground.

Gao Lan stood up, looked at the kneeling ministers, and said in a hoarse voice:

"I am tired. From now on, the Zen is located in Gaochang, the king of Wei. I admire you here."
